CELTIC have lost the first Glasgow Derby of the season but will be wondering how they’ve managed to do so.
The bhoys were more than a match for the home side but they couldn’t find the lethal touch in front of goal. Edouard had a tap in to put Celtic a goal up at Ibrox and he completely scuffed it – hitting off his heel and going by the post.
It was our old achilles heel that came back to haunt us again when Rangers* were allowed a free header in the box and Helander didn’t need a second invitation.
After that, the home side shut up shop and suffocated the game. Celtic would get a chance through Kyogo Furuhashi but the goalkeeper got a foot to it.
Celtic will be very disappointed and Ange will have to look at how he can get this team playing his style in big games. Celtic had a good first half but the pressing wasn’t there and the home side’s game management won it in the end.
Back to the drawing board.
